Maybe not in the correct forum but not sure where else to put it!
I inherited a c1992 Swift Corniche 14/2E caravan (one owner from new) a couple of years back and it's been sitting in the garden in Glasgow since then.
Exterior's a bit grubby but interior is in very good condition for age.
There's a awning in it's bag and one or two other bits and bobs.
Just wondered if it would be of interest to any CT member as a doer upper or perhaps as a donor vehicle for someone perhaps doing a conversion \ renovation of some description.
Not a lot of info, I know, but didn't want to waste much time if nobody possibly interested.
Let me know if you are and I can add further info.

They're called missionaries!
Did some of those earlier in the year.
Back to Garlieston in a couple of weeks.
Have a look at Fortrose Bay Caravan Site. We think it's a wee bitty better than Rosemarkie.
Have you looked at Findochty site? Lovely wee fishing village, pub at the entrance, etc.

A can unnerstaun the teef bit, grindin them awa at the weans but cannae agree wi the girnin bit. Only wimmin ur oany use at that.

Motorhomers (as I am noo!) are all shouting for overnighting facilities similar to the Aires \ Stellenplatz in France \ Germany and, whilst not necessarily for us, I can understand as being fully self-contained units. School playgrounds, suppose could be an option during holiday time as long as they're not undergoing refurb. Downside would be mhers, generally, are 12 monthers.

There's an interactive map on the site.

On that page there's a search facility where one of the filters is "Camping and Caravan". You also filter by "Area".
As far as I am aware you don't need to pay for access to above.

Michaelwood Services on M5 are very caravan friendly with dedicated drive in drive out caravan \ motorhome bays.
Used them with our Santa Fe and twin axle Lunar and subsequent motorhome on a number of occasions for onboard tea \ lunch. Patch of grass next to them for dog stop.
Junction 17 for ASDA Patchway. From memory, you can see it on the left just before the junction.

If you fancy pre-planning on a computer Garmin BaseCamp does have additional avoidance options in Activity Profiles which may assist. You can then transfer this pre-planned route onto your 760.
Examples of these options are -
toll roads
residential roads
car pool lanes
narrow trails
roundabouts
etc
Works well for us but we're on the dark side now!

Have a look here Gumsy. http://www. laptopsdirect. co. uk/
Bought a number of laptops for both domestic and business use from them.
You'll probably struggle to get your spec for £200 but they currently have a couple of A1 refurbished Asus i3 + Windows 7 (I, personally, wouldn't go anywhere near Windows 8 \ 8. 1 but that's me!) for £270 on the go. http://www. laptopsdirect. co. uk/nav/ml/laptopsnetbooks/operatingsystem/windows7homepremium64bit/pbgbp/04/type/laptops/0
